LSU investigating possible NCAA football violations

APLSU coach Les Miles has yet another problem to deal with after the school announced an investigation into possible NCAA violations.The details are almost non-existent at this point but LSU announced late Monday night it is looking into possible NCAA violations in the football program.

The seriousness of the violations were not addressed in the statement released by AD Joe Alleva.

"Compliance issues are routinely monitored by our compliance staff and LSU is currently researching possible violations involving one assistant coach and one student-athlete in the sport of football, " Alleva said in the statement.

"The involved student-athlete has not participated in competition for LSU. By procedure, the Southeastern Conference Office has been made aware of this circumstance by LSU. Privacy concerns for the University employee and the student-athlete preclude further comment at this time."

The assistant coach involved, according to multiple newspaper reports, is receivers coach D.J. McCarthy. It has been reported in recent days that McCarthy is not expected to return to LSU next season.
